I'industrie  privee  donner  satisfaction  aux  besoins  des  contrees

soucieuses  des  interets  g^neraux.  L' experience  du  r^seau  d'Etat

disadvantage  of  the  former.  Quotes  statistics  in  support  of  this 
argument.  "The  foregoing  facts  and  figures  clearly  prove  the 
wisdom  of  Bismarck's  policy  and  the  immense  superiority  of  the 
German  State-owned  railways  over  the  British  private  railways."

This  article  begins  by  saying  that  certain  trade  journals  have  been 
filled  during  the  previous  summer  with  a  whole  series  of  com- 
plaints as  to  "the  difficulties  which  traders  under  the  existing 
system  of  tariff  records  have  in  ascertaining  any  specific  rates  with 
ease  and  certainty."  The  writer  goes  on  to  point  out  that  it  is 
not  easy  for  the  German  State  railways  even  to  go  as  far  as  the 
French  private  railways  and  replace  by  one  single  comprehensive 
publication  "the  existing  welter  of  tariffs  and  supplemental  tar- 
iffs." The  French  publication  known  as  Chaix  is  b)'  no  means 
complete.  It  only  gives  the  more  important  rates  and  conditions, 
yet  it  occupies  2,700  quarto  pages  of  small  print  and  weighs  14 
lbs.  avoirdupois.  The  Austrian  railways,  continues  Herr  Liittke 
(Austrian  only,  not  Hungarian),  do  publish  a  complete  collection 
of  all  their  tariffs,  which  may  be  regarded  as  the  pattern  of  what 
such  a  work  should  be.  It  is  divided  into  fourteen  parts,  occu- 
pies 6,000  pages,  and  weighs  32  lbs.  avoirdupois.  That  no  such 
collection  exists  for  the  German  railwa3's,  Herr  Liittke  acknowl- 
edges; "that  such  a  collection  might  be  made,  is  undoubted." 
But  it  would  need  to  be  vastly  bigger  than  the  Austrian.  Ger- 
many has  more  than  four  times  as  many  stations;  the  tariffs 
referring  to  the  international  traffic  between  (lermanj-  and  Austro- 
Hungary  would  alone  require  some  3,000  to  4,000  pages.  "In 
any  case,  as  a  glance  at  the  tariff  record  of  the  German  Imperial 
Railway  Office  shows,  a  compilation  of  the  tariffs  in  which  Ger- 
many is  interested,  even  if  the  transit  tariffs  were  omitted,  implies 
not  a  book  but  a  library."  Contemporary  review,  April,  1905, 
pp.  574-575.

Saporito,  [Vincenzo].     La  question  du  rachat  des  chemins  de  fer  en 
Italic.     Extraits  du  rapport  presente  au  nom  de  la  Com- 
mission royale  italienne  chargee  de  Fenquete  sur  Fexploi- 
tation  des  chemins  de  fer. 
Paris:    Charles  Beranger,  1903.     158,  {^)  j^jj.     5°. 

This  report  was  drawn  up  for  the  Itahan  Parhament  to  provide 
information  to  guide  its  action  in  regard  to  the  proposed  taking 
over  by  the  Government  of  the  Italian  railroads.  The  original 
report  comprised  upward  of  600  quarto  pages.  The  translation 
herewith  presented  is  an  abridgment.  The  report  first  considers 
the  railroad  policies  of  the  countries  of  Continental  Europe, 
Great  Britain,  and  the  United  States.  It  then  examines  into  the 
causes  which  brought  about  State  exploitation  in  the  countries 
where  it  has  been  adopted.  It  then  presents  alternate  plans  for 
railroad  organization  in  Italy.  The  speech  by  Zanardelli  before 
the  Italian  Chamber  of  Deputies,  in  opposition  to  State  control, 
June  3,  1903,  is  printed  in  the  appendix.  Saporito' s  report  is 
favorable  to  private  management.
